THE SENTINEL in arguing that home

THE SENTINEL in arguing that home
manufacturers do not fix the price of
their goods at the full tariff limit, uses
the following Illustration:
The price of foreign knife Is 81 in
Guiding cost of transports tion, and the
duty is so cents. and it is sold here for
$50. Any equally good American knife,
just like it may be bought for 81.
Where then is the protection to
American labor? If English manufac-
turers get just as good price for their
wares as do Americans are not our
laborers reduced to the "pauper level
of those in England? The laborer is
told that high prices insure high wages
and here in the case of the foreign knife
he has no advantage over the pauper
laborer of Europe.

ruE latest sensation in political cir

TIE latest sensation in political cir.
cles is the discovery OF a compact be.
tween Henry George and Blaine. The
object is to turn the State of New
York over to the Republican party in
1883. The work is to be uone by
means of the Democratic working
vote which George is to draw away
from MIR. Blaine's opponent. But
what is George to get out of it? That
is not so evident. No one will Won
der at the connection OF the. man
from Maine with such trick. His
best admirers will applaud him for
"smartness." But George has been
regarded as the one Joseph in the po-
litical camp. No sort of tempting de-
vice could draw the philosopher aside
from the work of regenerating the Ma
ton! Well, that will do where the
former sand-lotter is not we'll known.
But out here in days of yore George
knew most of the tricks in his pres
ent trade, and, what is more, he knew
how to play them. Ward politics are
no strange lessons to him, and he
learned them in the excellent school
of experience,

INDIAN outbreaks are again the
order of the day. The Apache's are
reported on the rampage. The Crows
are on the rampage. Down in the
Indian Territory, an Indian editor has
shot an American editor, and this is
said to be sure to send all the tribes
in that section on the rampage. Such
is life in Indian circles, and such it
has been during the whole period of
our history. 1t is just about full time
for the Government to reconstruct its
policy on Indian affairs. There is
only one way to treat with these saw
ages, and that is the simplest of all.
We should refuse utterly to recognize
his savagery, his shiftlessness, his
natural thirst for blood, taste for
rapine, and all his diabolism in a
lump. Put him on his own mettle;
on his industry and good behavior.
Give him copy OF the codified laws
of the territory in which he lives, and
let the citizens of the territory deal
with him as they do with any other
entity which claims to be a man. If
the Indian will not work, apply the
Scripture rule to HIM, and let him
starve. If he commit a crime let
him be tried, and punished in due
form of law. If he resist arrest treat
him as Sheriff Mulvenon did the
white savages in Tonto Basin, and
end the matter right there.

SUGGESTIONS are going the rounds 10
the effect that a tax of $50 per month

as it seems to us, be detrimental to
the interests of the people in general.
A very large portion of the commu-
nifty still has land of some sort to sell.
The agents are doing much to attract
attention to this section in one way or
other. They keep the matter before
all comers by their announcements in
the daily papers. They write thous-
ands of letters to friends everv-
where, and they are all enthu-
siastic in their outgivings as to our
country, its prospects and attractions
of all sorts. Some of them take trips
to the East in order the better to
elbow our bazoo." BY all means
give them the freest possible scope in
which to exercise their beneficial in.
fiuence for us all. A moderate tax i,
enough, and that is paid cheerfully by
all the agents. Give the fellow of

EFFORTS which looked like a con-

land to the Republican party, do not
seem to prosper in the "City of Beau
tiful Women" Senator German holds
the fort in Baltimore with some sort
OF distinction. A combined attack
was made on his works by the Repub-
licans outside, and the rule-or-ruin
Democrats inside the walls. The re-
suit does some credit to the Senator as
a campaign manager. In spite of this
coalition he gets the city by four thou-
sand majority, an increase of one
hundred per cent over two years ago

New sensations in the Bowers Ben
hayon cases, which are creating so
much interest in San Francisco, will
be found in the telegraphic news this

did Bowers concoct this scheme to
poison his brother-in-law, forge the
letters and confession purporting to
have been left by Benhayon, and thus
deliver his own neck from the moose
which threatens him for the poisoning
of his wife six months ago. .
